A little random

I want to start by wishing my blogging friend Sandra a very happy birthday today!!!! Hope you had a wonderful day and got 5 minutes of peace!!!

Tomorrow night we are going to a little rodeo. This will be Hunter's 3rd year to go. The first time he was only a little over a month old. Last year, he was almost 14 months old and we had to take him out during the calf roping because he was getting upset. Curious to see how he does this year.

I must admit that watching the news and seeing all the jobs that are being cut is depressing. I often miss working myself, because of the adult conversation and because here at our house money is tight. I worked in the IT department of a managed care company for almost 10 years. However, I wonder if I had to go out and get a job tomorrow would there be any health care jobs available?

Now, the stimulus package. I must admit that it scares me to put our country that much more in debt. But I had seeing all the jobs lost as well. I am so glad I am not the one making these decisions. I just hope that those who are, think about the future as well as the present.

I hope you guys have fun at the rodeo! I think that would go over well here, that or a Monster Truck Jam... we'll have to try it.

The economy is scary... let's hope things turn around soon. I miss working too. :(

I got the best "joke" about the stimulus package...how we would borrow the money from China...and then spend our checks to buy big screen tv's (um made in China).
